Dear all,I'm happy to have found this support page for Behcet. I'm female, 39 years from Germany, suffering from ulcers since 2019, right now on an episode since end of August 
I have been to many doctors and hospitals. Right now I am treated at the university hospital in Leuven (Belgium). State of the art I would say. I did take Colchecin in the past during an episode and I think it caused an ugly scar, though ofcourse could be other reasons too. Currently I am advised to take it after an episode to prevent further episodes. Right now I am just waiting for the episode to end.
I can't help but wonder in how far nutrition plays a role in flare ups. My doctor said that some patients reported that lemon causes flare ups. What are your experiences? Probably this has already been discussed, so if you could refer me to the relevant discussion I would be very grateful!
Is there any international support group known?
Lastly a tip on what worked well for me: applying myrrh on a newly developing mouth ulcer prevented growth and outbreaks.
Enjoy your day,
A
